9:00 am
because it's completely changed our lives. eric: the race to the white house picking up speed with
9:01 am
early voting underway in several states performer president trump he is campaigning in battleground pennsylvania this afternoon. vice president kamala harris remains out west for a rally in another swing state. and that of nevada. running mates at jd vance, tim walz are preparing to debate each other face-to-face in just two days. a much more on all of that. but first, israel took out the head of transit 17 was expanding its attacks against iran's proxies. israel's military it says it struck houthi in terror targets in yemen near a key port that has been used to ship iranian weapons throughout the region. meantime israel also keeping up the pressure idf said they killed another about that iran that groups commander that is at least seven taken out and just over a week. on friday israel eliminated hezbollah leader and the bold
9:02 am
airstrike on beirut. a wave of targeted killings that have wiped out almost all of the iranian backed terror groups and leadership. the radical islamic terrorists and tehran on their heels. hello everyone welcome to "fox news live" at eric shawn. hey arthel. aarthel: hello eric, hello everyone i'm arthel neville by the question now will hezbollah it sponsor ironic retaliate and there's also no let up in the war against hamas who started all of this nearly one year ago. the israeli military said they uncovered dismantled a tunnel in central gaza that stretched for more than half a mile. eric: formal former israeli ambassador standing by to talk about the conflict and what to do about a run for it let's first go to mike tobin with the very latest on the ground. hi mike. >> the last couple of minutes has been combat over the north of israel. a couple drones fired out of
9:03 am
lebanon. made it to the town you can see over my right soul shoulder. the drones were intercepted from an israeli warship also israel says combat helicopter took out at least one of those drones. israel's not letting up on the pressure confirming strikes on yemen. as well as towns and a power plant to this file is two days in which israel was the target of bliss to commit missiles fired they were intercepted aimed at central israel. but no one was injured in both cases those missiles were taken out. israel hit that port back in july the 20th in response to a drone that struck tel aviv killing one the date after he's been killed his buddies and pull pulled from the rubble idf said 20 hezbollah operatives were killed alongside of them he was hit in the suburb of beirut with the can control structures in the same neighborhood israel
9:04 am
said today that hezbollah executive council member was assassinated. the threat of a ground invasion, israel's called up two brigades of her service but also armored personnel carriers and tanks have been moved from gaza to the lebanese border but attention is focused on the north combat continues in the gaza strip. fifth brigade and combat engineers located destroyed a tunnel about a kilometer long and central gaza. it was complete with rooms for long stays underground. engineers are rigged it with explosives and blew it up. given the threat iran could join the fight or expend the conflict at any time the pentagon says today that uss abraham lincoln carrier strike group as well as the u.s. as a wasp amphibious ready group with their complement of personnel and a weapons will remain in the region for a longer time. eric: arete mike tobin thank you. aarthel: alright more on this let's bring in former israeli prime minister bennett. mr. bennet, thank you so much
9:05 am
for joining us here. first of all iran says this represents a serious escalation in changes the rules of the game. do you anticipate a consequential response from ironic? or did israel send a strong message to iran to stop all you can? >> our actions send the message. what we have seen over the past few hours israel's iron fist can't reach anywhere. anywhere in the middle east. and i think in tehran see it. they are now understanding that if you mess with the jewish state we hit back. we hit back powerfully. we will no longer tolerate anyone who is threatening our people. arthel: meanwhile he is dead. i ask you can at decapitated hezbollah forge a formidable fight.
9:06 am
also is another idf ground incursion and lebanon imminent? or is there a diplomatic offramp? >> i want to clarify what our objective is. it's not only a cease-fire only for hezbollah to recuperate. right now hezbollah is temporarily almost paralyzed we hit them bad, we killed their ceo. we killed their board of directors we killed their executive management and whoever conducted the pager attack took out much of their mid level management. right now hezbollah is in shambles but that is a temporary. if we let up they will ultimately be able to recover and threaten our northern citizens. again i want to point out for the past 35 years they have been making our lives they have killed scores of israelis my best friend over the past year
9:07 am
they killed thousands of israelis including 12 children playing soccer. what we need to set as an objective is to permanently remove the threat of houthi in the north. arthel: does that mean a ground incursion will be part of that maneuver? >> there's a couple ways to achieve it. i trust the idf knows how to get that done. arthel: okay, we will move on we are eight days from the horrific headmaster attack and is of the day iran tried to stop normalization between israel and saudi arabia. now this morning republican senator lindsey graham had a message about this. let's listen. >> to my friends of israel to my friends and saudi arabia, he gave a great speech about the benefits of the deal. i have gone over it since last april's seven times trying to
9:08 am
help this administration normalized between saudi arabia and israel do not give up and do not let iran when do the deal. >> i ask you is a deal to end the arab/israel conf conflict gg to get done? >> i hope so. i think that sort of deal were we create an alliance of the positive countries and that moderate countries in the region egypt et cetera order to fight and repel the horrible access of evil of by ron, hezbollah, hamas. now it israel on the offensive we need to set a very clear goal. the goal is within a reasonable timeframe to topple the iranian regime of the islamic republic of iran. that iranian regime is the epicenter of all of our problems
9:09 am
in the middle east. it is despised by its own people they iranian people hate that regime. it is incompetent, corrupt, mean, old regime that will fall but i think america israel and the allies in the region can accelerate the demise of that regime. arthel: how do you do it and what's a reasonable timeframe? >> you do it not necessarily with the war but you use a bunch of tools similar to what was used against the soviet union and the 80s. i am talking about economic sanctions, diplomatic sanctions. i am talking about empowering the people of iran who go out and protest. every time they protest the iranian regime turns off the internet. we can take care of turning it back on. there are a lot of things we can do to empower the iranian people to overthrow their regime. and i want to make one more point out for the past 30 years
9:10 am
in the past year after october 7, our enemies thought israel has lost it. that the israelis are weak, exhausted, not willing to sacrifice anymore. i am here to say very clearly, israel is a nation of lions. thousands of people drove down october 7 to defend brothers and sisters. many of them lost their lives the state of israel has shown we are willing to sacrifice it. we are willing to sacrifice for freedom. we are willing to put our ideals on top of material considerations. and we have not lost our edge but we can be clever, sophisticated, surprise our enemies and it is only just begun. my point to the region into our enemies, we are back. we are back big and we will make the middle east a much better
9:11 am
place. arthel: the lions are roaring no doubt, sir. meanwhile there's no cease-fire deal between israel and hamas in the gaza war. do you know how many hostages are still being held in gaza? that are still alive and is there a plan to rescue them? >> there are a hundred hostages in hamas' custody. we do not know the precise number. i hope more than half of them are alive. we have to bring them home. this is a fundamental tenant of israel's atheists that we never forget. we never leave anyone behind. israel must bring them home. we have to step up the pressure on the war and reach a deal where we can bring them home safe and alive. because right now they are suffocating in those tunnels. it is a horrible things and we are just a few days from now it is going to be a year for when
9:12 am
they were kidnapped. they were kidnapped from their beds, from their homes, this is unacceptable. arthel: indeed it is unacceptable. do you think you will get those hostages home soon, sir? >> we have to but we have to apply the pressure. and at the same time build the right deal to bring them home. arthel: okay, israel is inviting hamas and gaza. hezbollah and 11 i went 37 days until the u.s. presidential election. kent u.s. diplomacy work before then? >> well, we need america's back to defeat our enemies to remove the noose that has been around our neck for so many years that we mistakenly let it build over the past 15 or 20 years. but now we are on the offensive. what we need from america, america's help is to want to have her back into, bring the
9:13 am
hostages home. bring all of the hostages home in the right manner. arthel: i believe america has made it clear they have your back. i do and to ask you, are we looking at a widespread or given what's happened there in lebanon? >> it is already a widespread or in the sense the enemies for the past year have been hitting us again, again, and killing israelis and create a no man's land. the only israel over the past 10 days is that now it is a two-sided war and we are hitting back. those who did not press for 11 months to dismantle hezbollah i would suggest we are hitting back and do not tie our hands. let us get the job done. because what we do now will bring quiet stability and security. and hopefully pi peace for the t decades forward.
9:14 am
arthel: understood sir by the question remains what you will do it now and how long it's going to take. that we are going to watch. we appreciate your time. and i'm really sorry to hear about your best friend, sir predicted here that is really prime minister naftali bennett thank you very much. >> thank you very much. eric: the lines will win. here in new york city and type protesters plan to gather intense where those speak out against by minister benjamin netanyahu and his military. this is the former gentry just told us the one-year mark since the massacre by hamas to think those protesters will condemn hamas? will they condemn hassan nasrallah 17 what about an cb cotton live in times square with an exclusive behind-the-scenes look. also have the new york's city police department is going behind-the-scenes to handle these protests.
9:15 am
>> nice to see a play despite the rain hundreds of protesters are expected to gather here in times square. they want the united states to stop sending those countries of committing genocide in gaza and now it lebanon. we will be watching to see whether any pro israel groups come here to counter the messaging. the anti- israel protests ramp up this week is more than 130 world leaders to the general assembly here in the city. yesterday, an organizer for some of these protests and made this post on x about that death death of hassan nasrallah. leader of the terror group hezbollah he was killed in an airstrike on friday in the group said quote, mourns the martyrdom of hassan nasrallah leader of the lebanese resistance and a symbol of the steadfast struggle
9:16 am
to liberate palestine." so, as the middle east embraces for a wider conflict expect protest to continue by this week i should mention i was given exclusive look at the nypd joint operations center were officers are busy at monitoring the protest by deputy commissioner sheppard tells me the agency respects everyone first amendment right to protest. but officers also must maintain order. this week other federal agencies join nypd at the center all monitoring droves of camo to ensure a quick response when things got out of hand. >> it is the perception happening that we have to battle. they are filming their video saying you know it was so peaceful. and then at showing you at times, at times the destruction of property, the blocking of the railways were an average citizen is just trying to get home to pick up their child. there being delayed can be disruptive to families and cause major issues.
9:17 am
>> today's a protest is slated to begin at 2:00 p.m. local time. we will be monitoring and this comes about a week out from the one-year mark when hamas invaded israel. back to you. eric: if you hear them shouting as hamas or any terrace, we will get you back on the air because that would be breaking news. thank you. arthel: thank you. north carolina just beginning to recover from the flooding, mudslides and power outages helena left behind. one county emergency director calls it a biblical devastation. we'll have a live report from the area coming up next. al auto. so you can get back to your monster to-do list. -really? -get a quote at progresivecommercial.com.

arthel: roll tide live in wisconsin thank you. [laughter] 's before we know where arthel stands on that vice president harris rains out west set the hold a rally in las vegas later on this afternoon. polls show she former president trump in a dead heat that race getting more heated after secured the endorsement of former arizona publican senator he said the vice president is ready for the white house. mark meredith live in sin city with what we can expect this afternoon. >> good afternoon. vice president harris as a financial advantage in this rate she's generating a lot of enthusiasm ringing out big crowds the latest polls in battleground states show this researching her and former president trump is still a tossup for the "new york times" issued a slew of new polls looking at the battleground states. take a look at michigan for instance. vice president is a leading by only by one point the time
9:28 am
suggest there's a reason the races so close, the economy and the times writing this harris advantage of early august has been chiseled away at slightly by mr. trump's enduring strength on economic issues. on friday it harris was putting immigration front and center she toured a southern border checkpoint in arizona. republicans claim harris is responsible for the large influx of migrants that have reached the u.s. in recent years. she says if she were to be promoted should increase security along the border. >> i will surge support to a law enforcement agencies on that front lines. more personnel, more training and more technology including 100 new inspection systems that can detect conventional hidden in vehicles. >> harris visit to arizona came within hours of a new government report showing more than 40000 illegal immigrants have criminal records are living in the u.s. and not in dhs custody, and security official is trying to
9:29 am
say and this report is misleading in their view they could also be something in custody in a different jurisdiction just maybe not in dhs custody dates back several years as an issue it's going to commit to pop up on the campaign trail we are also hearing from a former aide to the vice president kamala harris had a new op-ed out she said harris needs to stop ducking the press. she believes she should be doing more interviews and that could make a big difference in winning over some undecided voters. eric: maybe she will take some questions from you later on today. good to see you in las vegas. arthel: we are two days away from the vice presidential debate. how are jd vance and tim walz preparing? we will take a look at that coming up next.

9:35 am
he's fighting nerves afraid of letting vice president kamala harris down. pete booted judges helping on a personal capacity sta planning d estate events in mock sessions vance is good on stage but suggests it is all for show. >> what you're going to see is a contrast between a skilled politician, slick talker someone who openly admits he is willing to say whatever to make the case of the american people from the other side with governor tim walz a public school teacher who knows what americans are going through. ask the last two presidential debates there will be no audience. the mics will stay on at all times. after winning a virtual coin toss vance will have the last essay. he will go second during closing statements. arthel: taco tuesday get some tacos and then get in front of the tv set. [laughter] all right madeleine rivera thank you. eric: that is for sure. marty glaspie is former advisor
9:36 am
to speaker jon weiner former advisor to congressman adam. does vance have the edge because of his experience go into this debate on tuesday? >> he is certainly going in knowing he can command of the stage and answering the questions distinctly. it will still undecided and immigration issues and talk about it and away in order to be hope and opportunity we need to have law and order talking about it in ways that are not inflammatory to counteract some things for president trump is doing on the campaign trail. facts based which vance does that will be an advantage for
9:37 am
him for sure. eric: how does he use things against them as controversial comments in the past about former president trump said he failed to deliver. talking about the haitians eating cats, pets in ohio that have been proven officials say is unfounded. the awkward moments in the campaign what does he do about that he is good about being relatable kind of the fun uncle he is going to talk to people in the debate. talking about ways he is there for the people. he can be relatable, understandable and point out some of the
9:38 am
9:39 am
9:40 am
he has said before the vice president pick matters much. give advance the last word and maybe doesn't go out as well. whether the debate or not. i do think it has wait here. so many people not sure how to choose between the two choices or feeling confident in either
9:41 am
choice. this could make or break a few people in that middle area that are not short yet. and so to give advance the last word and if it is not as strong as a trump or his campaign would like it could be a deciding factor on the future debate between kamala harris and donald trump. eric: again those tacos are thorough says taco tuesday get the popcorn and then i chose it. we hope you are ready. good to see you, thank you. arthel: all the works for short. there is already been a big vp gaffe. jim who played tim walz on saturday night live. it was awesome. back to the news of thousands of port workers could walk off the job tomorrow night. economists at a strike could cause the u.s. economy billions of dollars every day and raised prices on everything from cars, two groceries. we are diving in coming up next. we're all out here climbing our own everests.

>> reporter: the potential strike would impact at least three dozen ports along the east and gulf coast from maine to texas that handle nearly half of the cargo transported in and out of the u.s. on hips. the strike -- on ships. the strike is expected to cost the u.s. economy at least $5
9:47 am
billion daily due in part to major snags in the supply chain. a number of businesses and retailers have already stocked up on goods as they brace for the strike that could eventually limit the availability of products and potentially drive up costs for consumers. >> everybody that's in need of goods each day are going to feel the impact that this is going to have. we're talking 36 port on the east and gulf coasts that are represented here, five of the top ten in the country. we're moving 12,000 trucks daily at port of new york/new jersey. this is very significant especially on farmers. if. >> reporter: the group representing the ports, the u.s. maritime alliance, is at an ims pass with the union representing the dock workers -- impasse. the international long shoremen's association or ila. the maritime alliance alleges that the union is not garre baning in -- bargaining in good faith, but ila is maintaining its position as they negotiate a new of 6-year contract.
9:48 am
they want higher wages and less automation. in a statement the union's president said, quote, my ila members are not going to accept these insulting officers -- offers that are a joke considering the work they perform and the billion dollar profits the companies make off the backs of their labor. a white house -- the white house press secretary tells fox news that the biden-harris administration is closely monitoring the situation and urging both parties to reach an agreement that benefits both sides to prevent disringses. as of now -- disruptions. as of now, this strike is sill stet to begin early tuesday morning. eric? eric: christina, thank you. arthel: we are bringing in the president of e, and p -- exp group. if deal is not struck before the longshoremen's contract expires by mid tight tomorrow -- midnight tomorrow, each day it will cost the economy up to the
9:49 am
4 billion each day. so what is the impact at the port of los angeles, new york, new jersey and then the residual effect and how it fans out from supply chain to wholesalers, to people's wallets? >> well, arthel, thank you of so much. right now we're seeing a potential large impact not only in our economy, but on the consumer as well. and i think something we're being very vigilant at least at our organization is to make sure that we have the proper inventory we need to supply our clientele and our customer base. but really what we're seeing is a long potential for some increase in prices on the consumer level, and supermarkets hopefully not having empty shelves. so we're doing what we can to prepare for this strike. there's going to be some crippling impacts on supply chain, for sure. arthel: but if it doesn't happen right away or if there's not a deal come october 1st and it lasts for maybe a day or two, what's the impact? you know, like, how much of a blow can you handle?
9:50 am
>> well, right now as we see, arthel, we're importing produce from different parts of the world. when you stop the supply chain whether it's one or two or a few weeks, it takes a little bit to wrap up. one or two days, you'll see short-term impacts, not so much long term. but i always tell individuals and organizations that once you stop the produce if supply chain, revving that back up is much more difficult than stopping it. you have to go from the agricultural level, from the importation level, maritime carriers are doing what they can. but you're seeing redirecting of cargo in different areas. it's just going to increase prices, no doubt about it. one or two-day strike, short impact. longer strikes, longer impacts, of course. arthel: yeah. what i want to show you, i have some numbers, a graphic. these numbers are from 202222, but it still gives you an idea of the showing the ports impacts and how much cargo it brings in
9:51 am
